Whenever Greg Maddux would be on the visiting team, I would always try to go to at least one game of the series. In over 5 years, I never saw him sign a single autograph. Now I go to AZ spring training and he is an instructor for the Texas Rangers. Not only will he still not sign, but he goes out of his way to avoid fans. Walking a special route that takes longer just to avoid any fan interaction. And if you do get his attention, he will give that little smirk and keep on walking. Honestly, all players make you work for the autograph these days. With all the pushing, shoving, and yelling plus the ever present dealers, I don't blame them.
